Re: How do I teach Adjectives and adverbs?

I am not a teacher.
I don't think translation is bad or that it's the reason for their confusion. Using the mother tongue of your students is ok when you give them the correct use of English. Perhaps some will disagree with me but that doesn't mean it's inappropriate. There are many methods for teaching, some concentrates on speaking, some on reading, some on grammar, translation, listening...etc
It will be much easier for you if there are adjectives and adverbs in their mother tongue just tell them English adjective is like this and adverb is like that. give them words in both languages and put them in sentences.
